Answer:

x =1 7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3x−1/5x=x−1

Multiply by 15 to clear the fractions

15(2/3x−1/5x)=15(x−1)

10x - 3x = 15x -15

Combine like terms

7x = 15x -15

Subtract 15x from each side

7x -15x = 15x -15x -15

-8x = -15

Divide each side by -8

-8x/-8 = -15/-8

x =15/8

x = 1 7/8

Write an equation of the line with the given slope that contains the given point.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

$y=-2x+12$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point-slope form given by:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Where <em>m</em> is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point.

So, we will substitute -2 for <em>m</em> and (5, 2) for (x₁, y₁). This gives us:

$y-(2)=-2(x-(5))$

Simplify:

$y-2=-2(x-5)$

Distribute:

$y-2=-2x+10$

Add 2 to both sides. Hence, our equation is:

$y=-2x+12$

How to do: 4(x+7)=2(x+7)

andre [41]

4(x+7) becomes 4x+28 you multipli the 4 in parentheses ans 2(x+7) becomes 2x+14

4x+28=2x+14 you move the x termes to the left and other numbers to the right look:

4x-2x=14-28 when you change the sides always change the sign +or-
2x=-14
2x/2=-14/2
X=-7
